If I have to be your best friend
If that's all I can get
Then I'll take the job with honor
I'll be the best one yet.
I'll offer you my shoulder
I'll show you how I care
I'll be there when you need me
I'm not going anywhere.
If I have to be your best friend
The one who hears you cry
Then I'll take the job with honor
I'll take the job with pride.
My love for you is stronger
Than you will ever know
But for you to ever love me
I will have to let you go.
You need time to find your purpose
You need time to sort your thoughts
But when the course has ended
And the race is finally run,
Remember it's your best friend
Who has loved you from day one.
